Hi, Pete! Thanks for the prompt reply! Good advice all! An update of other things I've done to My car since yesterday include replacing the plug wires which made an unbelievable difference in the way the car runs. I also put a bottle of fuel system cleaner in the tank after putting some way overpriced California gas in the tank. Wow, what a difference! So far, (knock on wood printed plastic...) she's running very well. I checked the plugs and they were very sooty, but still serviceable. Still smell catalyst, though. I hope I haven't ruined the converter by running the car rich like that- I just replaced that sucker and it cost me altogether around $420.00!
Any who- thanks again for the reply and advice. Hope to hear from you again sometime! Have a good one, Pete! Artty S.
